And by applying Battlax tire technology in both versions, both the Battlax Scooter SC2 and the SC2 Rain promise unbeatable performances’.

Battlax Scooter SC2: othe sporting tire for maxi scooters

The Battlax Scooter SC2 focuses on performance on dry and was developed based on the latest Battlax Hypersport S21 technology, enhancing the simplicity and pleasure of rding a sporting scooter.

The SC2’s hypersport floor design provides excellent rigidity thanks to the contact surface it offers, with new compounds selected for the best dry grip at any temperature.

In the rear tire, the three-layer compound [2] gives riers the best of both worlds: exceptional corner grip and feel, and wear resistance in the mid-range compound with maximum performance throughout tire life.

The Battlax SC2 Rain Scooter provides a level of traction and behavior on wet surfaces, supporting scooter riders on their daily trips. The development of this tire is based on the technology used in the new Battlax Sport Touring T31, promising a safe and confident journey, regardless of the conditions.

Both the front and rear SC2 Rain tires use the tread of the Battlax T31 Sport Touring, which has been improved to balance straight-line stability and quick steering. Wet performance has been improved through a higher Sea/Earth ratio for higher water drainage and the high silica content in the central compound, which provides excellent levels of grip at low temperatures.

The rear tire triple layer compound [3] provides a high grip and feel of bending contact as well as higher wear resistance in the central area compound with the best possible performance throughout the tire life.

The Battlax Scooter SC2 is available in 2 front and rear measures; the SC2 Rain offers 1 front and 3 rear measurements.
